manuel. this guy has had an all-american type season. i thought this was just going to be kind of like the big ben play. they threw it up to see if benjamin could make a play but, for the second time, he never leaves the ground. if you're that big and they are throwing a jump ball, you should at least jump, i would think. >> brad: maybe at 24 pounds, there is not a lot of jump in him but the gators take over. they have two time-outs remaining but they are down ten. with that, the last shot, was that the last shot the noles will get? matt jones will take it wide and matt jones, nice play and cuts back in and wisely goes down to stay inbounds and he got a first down. >> todd: hunter joyer has had a

nice ball game as a lead blocker. he has not carried the ball or a pass thrown to him but when florida needs to run the football, he has been an outstanding lead blocker. >> brad: 250-pounder out of wesley chapel, florida. on the ground again. positive yardage again. i guess when will muschamp told holly going into the locker room at halftime, we can run on anybody because we feel like we have run on better defenses this year, right now, when they need it, they are grinding out chunks. 15 yards on that one. >> todd: this is very similar to what they did against lsu earlier in the year. another great defense. they ran the ball 58 times in that game and they only threw 13 passes. and in the second half, they

wore down the lsu defense. that is what it looks like they are doing tonight as well. >> brad: this team will be on its way back to gainesville when notre dame and usc are playing. as far as watching that game as a team, that's pretty doubtful, but i'm sure they will watch what they can when they get back home. 2:30 remaining here as we check in with robert flores. >> here is an all-american player of the week nominee. landry jones of oklahoma. he has three touchdowns but right now, they are losing to oklahoma state by seven on espn. five minutes to go. jones is trying to leave the team on a game tying drive. vote text to 34763. brad? >> brad: tank carradine, one of the seniors on this club, down and in a lot of pain. >> todd: remember, this team --

this team lost dr. >> referee: time-out called by florida state. >> brad: you were going to say brandon jenkins. >> todd: he had a season ending foor foot injure the first game of the year. they thought they would have a rotation of the year. >> referee: florida state has called a team time-out. >> brad: that would be carradine and werner and jenkins. let's see if we can find out what happened to tank. >> todd: here he is right here. >> brad: you pray it's not a knee and that he just twisted it. >> holly: i'm check on tank carradine but in the meantime, mike gillislee for florida they examined him left midsection and

appears to be a rib injury and took his finger pulse monitor and said we play if they need him but i'm not sure they need him right now. his backup is running well. >> brad: again, cornellius" tank" carradine, a long walk when it hurts that bad. it has been a tough team -- a tough night on both teams injury wise. meanwhile, second down and 13 with florida state down to one time-out. florida can start to ice this thing and jones might ice it right here! ball game! touchdown.

now the gators realize it's going to be 11-1 and there is hope to play for all of the marbles. unless florida state is going to have a 17-point answer in the next 2:30. >> todd: watch this d.j. humphries again. the lead blocker. bring him in as an extra lineman playing the tight end position and drives his man and gets a second block on jones. >> brad: 24 unanswered florida points. >> todd: last year, this florida team struggled in the second half of games, particularly in the fourth quarter. they were outscored by opponent 86-59 in the fourth quarter last year. coming in this year, that was a major point of emphasis,

finishing games. from start-to-finish, from the texas a&m game early and all the way through tonight, they have been an outstanding second half football team. >> brad: 2:33 remaining, florida by 17, looking to snap a two-game losing skid against the noles and, more importantly, the possibility, depending on what happens with notre dame and usc tonight, they could be in the bcs title game. >> todd: people were so concerned about their offense. the last five games, they hadn't gained over 350 yards. they need to step up and make plays. they have done it. >> brad: kicked down to the 2 to joyner and he is bumped out of

bounds before he can get to the 25 yard line. we take a look at our good hands play. good hands on the florida defenders. matt elam got the first one. then it was jelani jenkins. roberson hauled that one before he was taken out of bounds. and florida made those points count on the unanswered points and the points off turnovers tonight. 24 unanswered points. wilder drops the pass out of the backfield. 14 points off the turnovers so far. >> todd: a little turnaround from last year. four interceptions by the gators

led to 21 points for florida state in a 21-7 victory in gainesville. just the opposite tonight. >> brad: this crowd is ignited by the third quarter and filing out now, as on senior night, it's not going to be a happy night, i don't think, for ej manuel. holly? >> holly: tank carradine on the sideline and examined that right knee. he is not able to return. he is beside himself. you i saw the team chaplain have a prayer with him. he is up and walking around right now but this could be devastating news for him. he is very upset. we will evaluate it further after the game but acc championship game come up and his future in the nfl. >> brad: ice bag on the knee and hopefully he will be back next week. they are going to be trying to fight back from their second loss of the year. and going against a georgia tech team that got throttled in

athens today. manuel takes another hit from antonio morns. morrisson. we are trying to unpile the quarterback and the guy that was helping on the stop.morrisson. we are trying to unpile the quarterback and the guy that was helping on the stop.we are tryi quarterback and the guy that was helping on the stop. florida state can only stop it one more time. they line up and try to get their offense something going here, down by 17. pass to dent and he had a dent put in him by matt elam. on monday, two night dancing final event begins. the best of the best will be performing but only one can win. find out on monday at 8:00, 7:00 central on abc. not a lot of dancing in this

game. more like colliding. manuel, deep ball on the sideline. intended for rashad greene. down to one minute. >> todd: we knew coming in to today, it was a big opportunity for the acc going head-to-head with the s.e.c. and three matchups. rivalry games. we already mentioned georgia tech got thumped in athens by georgia. here is florida state who is going down in this one. the last hope clemson and south carolina later on tonight in death valley. >> brad: clemson's only loss was to this florida state team. tahj boyd playing as well at quarterback than anybody in the country right now. kenny shaw out of bounds on first down but too little, too late for florida state.

this is the third game for florida against a top ten team. that's pretty good schedule. that's why the computers like them more than some other clubs with one loss. manuel runs, heading for the sideline. got there. got bulldogged down in front of the gator bench. >> todd: this florida team did not play alabama but they beat lsu, they beat south carolina badly. they did lose to georgia and vl jacksonville but they beat tam too many who may be the hottest team in college football right now and played them early and beat them and shut them out in the second half in college station. >> brad: texas a&m beat alabama. south carolina beat georgia. georgia beat florida. and they are all still sitting there licking their chops thinking about what might be. >> todd: and rooting for usc.

>> brad: and lane kiffin. something strange about that. seven degrees of separation of some kind. final 30 seconds. it's going to be a big, big win and i'm sure it's going to be a cold one for will muschamp, as his team was 7-6 last year. they are only 3-5 in the s.e.c. and now they will be 11-1-7 . 7-1 with a blemish to georgia. we were kidding around with him the other day. measuring for a first down with a helmet off. we look at the bcs standings now. notre dame and usc at 8:00 on abc, about 45 minutes from now. alabama a winner over auburn. a shutout in the iron bowl. georgia 42-10 on georgia tech and florida by 17 here in the waning moments of this game and oregon beat oregon state in

corvallis. >> todd: you mentioned will muschamp in rivalry games. he hasn't beaten georgia. he is 0-2 against georgia. he lost to florida state last year, but he evens up that slate. >> brad: we are kidding around with him. people say your offense isn't that sexy. but he says my wife thinks i am. crossing route. james wilder jr. goes down inside the 25 yard line with a flag down at the end of the play again. >> todd: probably a face mask. >> brad: it's getting sloppy here in the last final minute. good thing for will the farther he walks away from the bucket of ice, the better he'll feel. >> referee: personal foul grabbing the face mask, defense number 1. half the distance to the goal. automatic first down.

>> todd: good news for will muschamp and the florida gators is regardless of where they play their next game, they will have time to rest and rest. jeff driskel has time to let the ankle heal and other guys who are banged up and beat up as everybody at this point in the season can heal up. they don't have a game next week and they can get ready to wherever their next assignment will be and whatever bowl games that takes place. >> brad: three flags in a row here to end this game or close to ending it, anyway. a lot of people think that you shent shouldn't have the opportunity to play in the national championship if you don't play in your conference championship game. florida will not. it's g. and alabama. but remember last year, alabama didn't play in it and got an opportunity and won it all and what florida is hoping for and it all hinges what happens between usc and notre dame. >> referee: holding, offense number 75. >> brad: that is coming up in 45

minutes. the game of the night. 8:00 eastern time. >> todd: the other thing for florida, even if they don't make it to the national championship game, if they finish third in the final bcs poll which, in all likelihood they will, they are guaranteed a spot in the bill clinton bowl. fountain winner of the s.e.c. championship game goes to the national championship game, florida probably is still going to end up in one of the bcs bowl games at the end of the year. >> brad: will just got it. they pour it before the snap manuel to the end zone. incomplete. we are down to ten seconds. that is a happy shower, a happy guy, as they stalked him for quite some time on the sideline. >> todd: i know his peripheral vision is better than that. i think he knew it was coming and said i'll just go ahead and take it. >> brad: as a former georgia defensive back, you think his vision would be better than that.

he's a fiery guy, has tried to calm down business sideline demeanor because he said, last year, we blew some opportunities because we blew our cool and i told my team, if i don't blow my cool, i expect you not to blow yours and they will not blow up their chance but they might give up a touchdown on the last play and they do. e.j. manuel on the final carry of his senior night, he gets a touchdown to close the gap a little bit. but that's it. florida state drops 10-2. the gators go to 11-1. 22-yard touchdown run by ej manuel. >> todd: the players are thinking they need to kick the extra point but the officials are leaving the field. they are not going to kick the extra point. game is over in their minds and so it's time to get to midfield for the handshake for jimbo fisher and will muschamp.

>> brad: two old friends who coached together at lsu and been friends for a long, long time. they never like to coach against each other but there you see the hug at midfield and i'm sure they will talk about it down the road. coming up next, notre dame takes on usc. season concludes with a bcs national championship game on monday, january 7th, 2013. that wraps it up for holly rowe and todd blackledge. i'm brad nessler. good night from tallahassee!
